One person using something doesn't mean it's popular.

Regardless, they're the same OS, so any serious (read: competent) person compiling stats like this would combine them into the same bucket.

I think that's the GP's point. If the people who put this together are too lazy/uninformed/incompetent to combine those two categories into one (because yes, they are the same thing), why would I believe anything about

The funny thing is that in some cases using a different harness with the subscription plan could actually be very good for Anthropic: e.g. if I were to use smol with Opus, it could use fewer tokens than CC for the same task. People on subs

This might be my bubble showing, but I expect this would have worked better if DC lighting became more popular 20+ years ago, when many many more people had landlines. (I suppose a lot of people in the US still probably do have landlines, b

Not really. It's typical rambling LLM slop-analysis. It may be a correct analysis (I couldn't stomach reading it in detail), but it's a pain in the ass to read. A human doing the same analysis would have written something 1&#

I dunno, temperature doesn't really work like that. As a sibling mentioned, saunas: I can sit in a 190F dry sauna for about a half hour at a time and it feels hot but nice and soothing. But I can only handle a 120F steam room for may

Also if you set something to heat water until it's exactly 100C/212F, it probably won't be boiling when it gets there. Some bits of it might be bubbling, but it won't be what we normally think of as "boiling".

You have it backward. There's no absolute truth on what's optimal for what people use most. What's optimal is just what you were reinforcement-trained to feel when you were growing up as a child. That's it. My wife sa

Millions -- hundreds of millions, even -- regularly experience -10F and 110F as well, but you've arbitrarily picked 0F-100F, so I guess their experience doesn't matter, because you prefer round numbers?

Not quite. If you use the "send to kindle" feature, since 2022 Amazon will convert it for you before it puts it on the device. If you copy an epub to the device over USB it won't work. The kindle itself does not support epub.

I don't think that's the reason IPv6 adoption has been slow. It's because ISPs and telcos and data centers and everyone else are slow to upgrade hardware and software, because they don't care about it and because it cos
